Where can I buy CAT 5e cable at a good price?

Looking to install a network in my house to allow me use Extenders with my Windows Media Center PC - anyone know the best place in Dublin to get CAT 5e cable and will the UTP solid stuff do me?

Radionics or All Cables are probably the best bet:

www.connectix.ie - irish prices are better than the ones on the web.

Solid stuff will do - but less flexible and if moved more prone to failure if moved.
so get the patch cable or fix the ends. Spend a little extra and get the low halon for fire safety.
